By Doug Snover |

Project to bury a proposed high-voltage
power line that has some Kyrene Corridor
residents fuming about their property
values and views if the utility hangs
the new line on poles along portions of
McClintock Drive. |

Consider
this scenario: One
sunny day you
discover that your
homeowners
association has
incurred a financial
liability in excess
of its ability to
pay, and that its
insurance policy
either covers
substantially less
of the amount owed
or does not cover it
at all. |

With tryouts officially under way for

If you’re a serious Harry Potter buff
you already know that the new entry in
the film series, Harry Potter and the
Goblet of Fire, is set to open Nov.
18.
But if, like me, you know the series
mainly through the enthusiasm of
friends, you may have missed last year’s
film, Harry Potter and the Prisoner
of Azkaban.

This is a column about Thanksgiving side
dishes.
Not that I’m trying to get you worked up
about Thanksgiving earlier than you have
to.
It’s just that my next column will be
about Thanksgiving leftovers, so I’m
trying to think ahead.
Anyway, none of these dishes is
exclusive to Turkey Day — they’re good
on any fall or winter menu. |

Kyrene Corridor Rotary Club first with Centennial charter |
To the casual observer, it was just another benchmark in the normal chronology of events that, since 1904, have welcome 1.2 million members into the family of Rotary International. However, for those who appreciated its significance, the official chartering ceremony for Rotary Club of the Kyrene Corridor held a uniqueness all its own. |
